FAR AWAY Lyrics

[Intro]
Mmm-mmm
Mmm-mmm

[Verse 1]
Hand on the Bible (Lord have mercy)
I think you're the love of my life (Yeah)
Maybe 'cause you hop on a flight to find me
I feel like I need you tonight beside me (Yeah)
You're still a world away
And you're still waitin' for your papers
Been feelin' like the government wants us to break up
IPhone XXX, FaceTime saves us (Yeah)

[Chorus]
I feel what you feel when you're far away
When you're far away
When you're far away, oh
I feel what you feel when you're far away
It's been a hundred days
Since I kissed your face, oh

[Verse 2]
Distance ain't shit because you and I both committed
No fuck boys, no thirsty bitches could ever come between this (Lord have mercy)
It's different, we trust each other
We both been fucked by old lovers
Your sex, it helped me recover
Icebox but you buy me summer (Ooh)

[Chorus]
I feel what you feel when you're far away (When you're far away)
When you're far away (When you're far away)
When you're far away (When you're far away), oh
I feel what you feel when you're far away (When you're far away)
It's been a hundred days
Since I kissed your face, mmm

[Bridge]
On my mama, I'll never hurt you
On my mama, I don't deserve you
Humble love, don't even know your worth
Life before you is just a blur
On my mama, I'll never hurt you
On my mama, I don't deserve you
Humble love, don't even know your worth
Life before you is just a blur

[Chorus]
I feel what you feel when you're far away (When you're far away)
When you're far away (When you're far away)
When you're far away (When you're far away), oh
I feel what you feel when you're far away (When you're far away)
It's been a hundred days
Since I kissed your face

[Outro]
Mmm-mmm
Mmm-mmm
(Lord have mercy)
